  1. Rigorous Curriculum Design Day 3 Big Ideas Essential Questions

  2. Today’s Big Goals • Review Unit Organizer • Align Standards for Mathematical Practice to the Unit • Create Big Ideas & Essential Questions

  3. State Assessments; National Assessments Common Formative Post-Assessment & PLT Process Enrichment, Remediation, Intervention Prior to Next Curricular Unit Effective Teaching Strategies with Progress Monitoring Checks Rigorous Curricular Units of Study based on Unwrapped Priority CCSS The Big Picture Common Formative Pre-Assessment & PLT Process Scope, Sequencing, and Pacing Curricular Units Priority CCSS and Supporting CCSS Common Core State Standards

  4. Standards for mathematical practice • Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. • Reason abstractly and quantitatively. • Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. • Model with mathematics. • Use appropriate tools strategically. • Attend to precision. • Look for and make use of structure. • Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning. Mathematical Practices

  5. Standards for mathematical practice - the verbs #1: Explain and make conjectures… #2: Make sense of… #3: Understand and use… #4: Apply and interpret… #5: Consider and detect… #6: Communicate precisely to others… #7: Discern and recognize… #8: Notice and pay attention to… Mathematical Practices

  10. Structuring the Practices Mathematical Practices

  11. Standards for Mathematical Practice The eight standards for mathematical practice place an emphasis on students doing mathematics and demonstrating learning. Mathematical Practices • Equitable achievement will begin with an understanding of how the • selection of tasks, • assessment of tasks, and • student learning environment • can support or undermine equity in our schools.

  12. What are big ideas? • Provide the larger conceptual umbrella under which myriad facts reside, giving them purpose, meaning, and value. • Are written as full-sentence statements, describing what – specifically – students should understand about the topic. Big Ideas & Essential questions

  13. What are essential questions? • Are open-ended, but directly tied to the Big Idea(s) and the CCSS standard. • Invite students into the learning process. • Advertise upfront the learning goals of the standard (and ultimately, the instructional units that will be designed to teach them). Big ideas & Essential questions

  14. Writing big ideas and essential questions • 2 – 5 of each per unit • Sequence the questions so they naturally lead from one to the other. • Written to post in the classroom during instruction (student friendly, though not giving up vocabulary Big ideas & Essential questions

  15. Your turn • Begin with one unit • Analyze unwrapped standards • Create set of Big Ideas and Essential Questions for the unit Big ideas & Essential questions

  16. How to use big ideas and essential questions • Carefully consider what learning activities should take place in order to support students in truly understanding the Big Ideas inherent in a particular CCSS Standard. • Begin thinking about what evidence you will need in order to say, without hesitation, that your students “got it.” Big ideas & Essential questions

  17. Pinterest update • Group board now available • All have been invited through Pinterest or email. • Tonight’s assignment: • Pin at least four resources to the Common Core Math Board • Look for at least one assessment resource to pin related to your chosen unit of study • Comment on at least two pins by others Pinterest Update
